Find experienced child care providers in Island Park, NY

Hi, my name is Kiara but I go by Kiwi! I'm a native New Yorker from Brooklyn and I have over 4 years of childcare experience. I worked at a daycare in Queens (Future Sunshine Daycare) part-time, and went full-time after about 6 months as the owner is also a foster mother and needed help with her 3 foster children. I started living-in 4 days a week for about a year while still working for the daycare, thus caring for 8 kids (2 infants aged 4-6 months, 1 toddler aged 3 and 5 older children aged 6-9) along with 2 other alternating workers. I worked there for 2 years alternating between part-time and full-time after the foster children moved on. This passing summer I worked as a camp counselor at a summer camp in Plymouth, Vermont. I worked there throughout the whole summer as a camp counselor monitoring kids ages 4-11. Since then I've been babysitting for different families and providing occasional coverage for workers at the daycare. I am CPR and AED certified for both adults and children, my red cross certification ID is 10VNC1Q.

I love being a sitter because working with kids brings me so much joy. I’ve spent the last four years as a paraprofessional in schools, supporting children from pre-K through middle school. Along the way, I’ve developed patience, creativity, and strong communication skills while working closely with kids, parents, and teachers. I’m also EMT- and CPR-certified, so safety is always a top priority. Currently, I’m in nursing school, pursuing my dream of becoming a pediatric nurse. Babysitting allows me to continue doing what I love caring for children and helping them feel safe, supported, and happy.
